Images

The images on this site are dithered to reduce page size and bandwidth usage. Images take up most of the bandwidth when loading a page, and by dithering them, a page's size can be reduced tenfold while keeping fun visuals and adding a unique aesthetic.

I decided to use dithered images for this site to ensure a quick page loads, add a fun visual identity, and reduce resource and bandwidth usage in the event that I move to locally hosting this site.

The images on this site are currently dithered using Bayer Ordered Dithering, in black and white, with images shrunk to 512px or 256px wide depending on the amount of detail necessary.
